I remember when friendships actually meant something that was real.
When your friends would trust and confide in you and tell you how they feel.
You each would share your deepest thoughts of imagination.
Your goals and dreams and your inspirations.
Some friendships come and go is what I've learned through my journey of life.
Some friendships tear at the soul, extinguish with no explanation, and cut like a knife.
True friendships last a life time until death do you part.
Other friendships last just a moment long enough to rip at your heart.
The best friendship that one can receive.
Is the friendship that remains and refuses to leave.
Through thick and thin and everywhere in between.
Through the good times and the bad and all the shared dreams.
I still remember those days and wonder where they have gone.
I miss those days when friends were real , it seems so goddamn long

i miss the friends i had a long time ago. i lost my very best friend a while ago but im lucky enough for us to start talking again. thankyou so much for entering my contest and best of luck!

Exactly how I feel! I remember, only faintly, the last time I could greet and befriend someone without paranoia, or having to put up a mental guard. I would love to relax around people, but the consequences are too great, I know.

Nice poem, very touching and well deserving of all the trophies. May just earn another one
but we will see. The rhyme is great and not at all forced. This is a great poem, just a little cliche since it doesn't really describe any particular incident, it just talksabout being hurt by a friend. If you are willing to share them, personal details can make a poem more meaningful. Anyway, this is still a very good poem! Thanks for your entry and good luck in my contest.

Yep. I understand whole heartedly. And what I loved most about this is just how real you made it out to be. Something about the last line totally grabbed me in and wouldn't let go... it was so dramatic and sad... I really liked this. Thank you and good luck.
